Recession Proof Mixology at Ten 01 - Tonight

Things I like:

1. The kind of sandwiches that come wrapped in cellophane. For instance, you can get a turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce, wrapped in cellophane, from the Elephants on Wheels window outside of Macy's.

2. Reading Kelley Swenson's cocktail menus. This list of tonight's Recession Proof Mixology drinks at Ten 01 is the most interesting thing I have read so far today. Also interesting is the fact that all of these cocktails are $5 at Ten 01 from 5:30 to 8pm. That is three hours from now.
